Pros

I've been working full time in sales more than 1 year. - Brand Name - Work life balance - Discounted air travel

Cons

- Negative and depressing work environment - Mind numbing office politics - Lack of team work and divide and rule style of management - Hitler like ways of management - Bad treatment by colleagues - No respect - Not one but majority India employees are depressed in the work culture - You will get stuck here, because its not easy to find a brand as strong to move on. Companies will always judge you on leaving a brand like BA. - Poor Salaries (best in airlines, but very low compared to other indus) - No professional learning - No scope of growth - Sr. positions only open for Expats - Racism is faced by Crew - Call Ba can be a nightmare to work with - Company culture and value are only for the books - All of these negatives are largely about Ba India

Pros

The benefits, especially the flight perks, are pretty good. Big global brand so opportunity to work with people all around the world.

Cons

The pay lower than the market average. Workload demands mean the work/life balance doesnt really exist. Recently had a reorganisation in Finance and other support functions so there's now more work with less people to do it.
